During a recent appearance on SiriusXM‘s “Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk,” Puddle Of Mudd vocalist/guitarist Wes Scantlin opened up about being arrested numerous times throughout his career. The frontman says he “really seriously don’t really do that much wrong things.”
Scantlin said the following:
“Yeah. [My] main goal [is] just [to] stay out of trouble. And I really seriously don’t really do that much wrong things. I really just don’t. But I’m like a big fish in the little pond. I call myself a Christmas dinner trophy for the Poppo. I wonder how many times they’ve explained that they arrested me at their Christmas dinner, at Christmas day. I’m telling you, man. I’m just a big, huge trophy.”
He also added the following when asked about the media’s portrayal of his arrests:
“I’ve made some mistakes, but at certain points I could breathe in the wrong direction and get cuffed and slammed in a dungeon. Shoot, man. It’s weird. My whole thing, my whole motto is turn around and run for your life as fast as you possibly can, man… I’m talking about maybe like a girlfriend or something. If they hit the ‘psycho wall’, as I call it — turn around and run… Somebody’s gotta go down, and they usually pick me, ’cause I’m the trophy. But my motto is turn around and run as fast as you can and just run.”
